For anyone who remembers the thoroughly buggered Crusader sports I was doing for a mate, it is now MOT'd and waiting for registration

I'm now doing the engine on my honda CB400F. It's barely been touched since it left Japan...it feels fantastic!

Well done Greenbat, a nice job! The poor old Crusader range was too sophisticated a bike to give to 17 year old learners in the first place and the sporty looks of the last models (Continental and Continental GT) just added to the problem by making every after market part maker offer cheap go faster bits to convert the earlier bikes! Although you've had a trial, there are many more abuses that could have been perpetrated, trust me! The rewards of a good 250 are surprisingly well worth it though as you will find. Just don't start on a 5 speed box or you'll know real pain...
